They Don't Know How To Move??

Don't blame me if you don't get it. I came up with this idea in a dream, like a couple other strips I did.

5/21/09

Dead/Alive

I got this idea from The Master, along with most of the other strips this week.

He's Wet

Merlin didn't come out right originally in the first panel, so I tried using my white-out pen. But it just smudged it. I covered up the smudge with the pen when it started working, but the smudge still showed through. So to fix this, I cut out a part of the paper at the bottom, and pasted it over Merlin's head. Luckily, at first glance, it's hard to tell!

Who's the Real Cheater?

The title is a repeated title of both Who's the Real Robber? and Who's the Real Liar?

Athch? Shathe?

The four middle panels can be read in any order. From left-right and top-bottom, it goes rg-athch-gr-shathe. But the original strip went rg-gr-athch-shathe.

PTP

My mom coined the term "psychic twin phenomenon."

Grandpa Jones Was, Apparently, Born in 1959

And while we're talking about states, about a week ago I finished my collection of state quarters!

She is Smart

Another pi post! Too bad I missed Pi Day (March 14).

She's playing with Disney/Pixar's Luxo ball again!

Don't Crush the Tiny Camerabug!

Since the Prince Catsup Video Podcast isn't too far away, I thought I'd post a little teaser poster. This may give you an idea of what's going to happen.
Hmm...on June 23, 2009, King Mustard will send The Stick to a time-out, much to the dismay of Nerm, Moe, Thidwick, Bob, and Merlin.

Or maybe King Mustard is asserting his king-hood in front of Nerm, Moe, Merlin, Thidwick, and Bob by not letting The Stick be in the poster?

Comment on the post and tell me what YOU think is going on!

That Fly Won't Know What Hit Him! ...Unless He Looks Up

The pose Bob is in is a real cat pre-attack pose.

3.14...


Kristene actually correctly recites the first few digits of pi. Compared with the number of digits we've calculated so far (over a trillion!), 36 digits really is a few!

For more digits of pi, try a million digits!

M-Cube 64?

The I.W.M.A. logo has been changed to a Rubik's Cube, instead of Moe's head.

Merlin Looks Weird in Panel 3

The reason he looks strange is because I tried to make him look slightly more realistic. I don't think it worked. Merlin is "torturing Lily with claws and jaws?" That means his hands/paws (claws) are touching her, and his tongue (jaw) is drooling.

4/23/09

Or Not

Moe did this when Brennan was a baby, but the strip wasn't on the blog. Lily looks kind of thin in the last panel.

4/22/09

Duhh!

The title is a repeated title of Duh! I did this when I was about Brennan's age, before my first brother was born. I thought it was so funny, I wanted to use it in my strip.

4/21/09

Lily Jane Jones

The name Lily Jane Jones came from a number of ideas. The last name "Jones" had already been established in Moe's family. I was watching videos of me as a baby, and for some reason, I wanted to put another baby in the strip. I couldn't decide whether to give it to Moe's or Thidwick's family. My mom shot out Moe's. She wanted to call her Lily, because if she had any daughters, that's what she would call her. However, I wanted to call her Jane, because before one of my brothers was born, I wanted him to be a girl so I could call "her" Jane. I guess it came to us at the same time that her name would be Lily Jane Jones.

Who Solved The Rubik's Cube?

The Rubik's Cube solved itself in panel 2! Why do you think they're at the hospital?

675 Score...for a DOG?!

In my original sketch, panels (not counting the logo box) 5, 13, 16, and 17 were not in there. I added them in to add more panels to the layout. The way I was going with the first few panels, there were too many spaces to put the remaining panels in, so I threw those four in.

The title is a repeated title of 300 Score...for a DOG?!

Nerm the Second

For the upcoming Nermia podcast, I wanted to do something relating to Nermia here. I was thinking who would be the next President of Nermia after Nerm. I thought, "Nerm the Second? Nerm II?" And that's when I decided to give Nerm a son.

What Movie Is He Watching...Finding Nemo?

I color the water in a different way. First, I shade everything underwater in a very light blue. Then I color everything else its natural color, and re-shade everything in blue again.

4/16/09

Nemo's In Love With a Broom?

I can't really remember where this idea came from.

This came from my baby brother.

Luxo, Jr.

Luxo, Jr., released in 1986 (and re-released in 1999 with the release of Toy Story 2), was the very first official movie from Pixar Animation Studios.

Where is Springton?

The panel about the Rubik's Museum wasn't in my original sketch. Other than that, the content of every panel was the same!!

Fluorescent Ideas?

I don't really remember where this idea came from.

Define Personal Space

My original sketch had Julia a little bit closer to Moe.

The Master Blaster!

One day I had the idea of a really aggressive-looking gun shooting either paper airplanes, or really tiny bullets. I thought it was so funny, I decided to use it here.

Just off the lines of I.W.M.A. products...the Master Blaster!
